XaeroSupport

Adds XaeroMinimap and XaeroWorldMap support to your Minecraft server!

Definitions

Xaero Server-Specifics:

• How filled out your maps are on a specific world. (The loaded/filled in chunks when you open your map for a specific world.)
• Waypoints.

Backend Server:

• A Minecraft server behind a Minecraft proxy that is also not a Minecraft proxy.

Minecraft Proxy:

• Such as:
  • Velocity and forks.
  • BungeeCord and forks.

Server Id:

• A unique identifier (that is a number) that tells players' Xaero mods (on the client) that your server is your server.

FAQ

Q: Does this affect performance?

A (Simple): No.

A (Full): Most plugins won't affect performance, even if they are bigger plugins. What effects performance is how the plugins do operations with your server. This plugin does no operations, it is all just packets and it only sends packets when a player joins.

Q: Is this a 1:1 (1 to 1) replacement of the Xaero mods (server-side), but as a plugin?

A (Simple): No, but eventually yes.

A (Full): Right now, all this does is add support for Xaero Server-Specifics (look in the Definitions to define). Eventually, I will add more 1:1 functionality from the Xaero mods.

Q: Why would I use this if it is not a 1:1 replacement?

A (Full): Well, keep in mind that eventually it will be. But, in the mean time, this is extremely useful for Minecraft Proxies because it makes it so each of your Backend Servers can have their own Xaero Server-Specifics (look in the Definitions to define) -- this is very helpful due to how Xaero stores these in your game's files.

Q: What would happen if I don't use this, or something like this and I have players who use Xaero's mod join my server?

A (Full): Xaero used to keep Xaero Server-Specifics defined per world/server name. Which is an issue if you have multiple servers you join with the same name (i.e. if you have all your server's named Minecraft Server -- which is the default). Xaero recently added functionality to look at the IP that players used to join your server to differentiate the Xaero Server-Specifics, but this only works if you have an updated mod and if your server isn't behind a Minecraft Proxy. If the players' mod thinks you are on the same server/world when you are not, it will overwrite/reset the map data it already has filled out, or even delete or add some way points. This plugin fixes that.

• No more need for Paper forks!
  • Some paper forks (such as Leaf and DivineMC) add exactly what this plugin does directly into your server software, this plugin adds it as a plugin so you don't need to rely on Leaf or DivineMC to be stable.
• Easy set up! (Drag and drop!)
  • It automatically generates a Server Id for your server.
